2012 Root Sampling
Two 2" cores were taken and divided in to two depths (0-15 cm and 15-30 cm). Replicate 1 (labeled "center" on the field sheets) was always the northwest corner ( 66 cm from the N in the western strip). Replicate 2 (one labeled "edge" on the field sheets) was always the south east corner ( 66 cm from the S in the eastern strip).
